Notice of Submission of Proposed
Information Collection to OMB:
Community Development Block Grant
Recovery (CDBG–R) Program
Office of the Chief Information
Officer, HUD.
ACTION: Notice.

AGENCY:

SUMMARY: The proposed information
collection requirement described below
has been submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review, as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act. The Department is
soliciting public comments on the
subject proposal.
This request identifies the estimated
reporting burden associated with the
reporting of CDBG–R assisted activities
as they are completed and closing out
the CDBG–R program. The American
Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009
(Recovery Act) appropriated $1 Billion
in Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) funds to states and local
governments that received CDBG
funding in Fiscal Year 2008 to carry out,

on an expedited basis, eligible activities
under the CDBG program. The purpose
of the CDBG–R funding was to stimulate
the economy through measures that
modernized the Nation’s infrastructure,
improved energy efficiency, and
expanded educational opportunities and
access to health care. All CDBG–R funds
were required to be expended by
September 30, 2012. Any CDBG–R
funds remaining after that date were
recaptured by HUD and returned to
Treasury. The Recovery Act did not
specify a requirement regarding the date
for completion of CDBG–R assisted
activities, although grantees were
required to give preference to activities
that could be started and completed
expeditiously. While the CDBG–R
expenditure deadline has passed, all
CDBG–R assisted activities have not
been completed. New activities were
added over time when grantees
amended their 2008 substantial
amendments to add such activities
because previously identified activities
came in under budget, were identified
as imprudent, or did not meet the
purposes of the Recovery Act. Once
CDBG–R assisted activities meet a
national objective and are physically
complete, grantees may proceed in
closing out their CDBG–R programs.
Grantees must complete their final
reports in federalreporting.gov before
closing out their CDBG–R grants. HUD
expects grantees to be ready to begin
closing out their grants by March 31,
2013. Once final reports are completed
in federalreporting.gov, grantees may
begin the process of closing out their
CDBG–R grants. This process requires
grantees to submit their final
federalreporting.gov report and prepare
and submit a CDBG–R Program Grantee
Closeout Certification, a CDBG–R
closeout checklist, Grant Closeout
Agreement, and a Federal Financial

Report (SF 425) to local HUD Field
Offices. The Recovery Act requires that
not later than 10 days after the end of
each calendar quarter, each recipient
that received recovery funds from a
federal agency shall submit a report to
that agency that contains: (1) The total
amount of recovery funds received from
that agency; (2) the amount of recovery
funds received that were expended or
obligated to projects or activities; and
(3) a detailed list of all projects or
activities for which recovery funds were
expended or obligated, including (A) the
name of the project or activity; (B) a
description of the project or activity; (C)
an evaluation of the completion status
of the project or activity; (D) an estimate
of the number of jobs created and the
number of jobs retained by the project
or activity; and (E) for infrastructure
investments made by State and local
governments, the purpose, total cost,
and rationale of the agency for funding
the infrastructure investment with funds
made available under the Recovery Act
and name of the person to contact at the
agency if there are concerns with the
infrastructure investment. An update of
the status of activities identified here
must be reported quarterly in
federalreporting.gov. In addition, not
later than 30 calendar days after the end
of each calendar quarter, each agency
that made Recovery Act funds available
to any recipient shall make the
information in reports submitted
publicly available by posting the
information on a Web site. Grantees that
have ongoing CDBG–R assisted
activities are required to continue
reporting quarterly on those activities
until they are completed. Information
must be submitted using HUD’s IDIS
system and in federalreporting.gov.
Pursuant to Section 1512 of the
Recovery Act, CDBG–R grantees must
enter the data into IDIS on a quarterly
